England
none of the above

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The two Opium Wars were between China and England.

The first war developed from 1839 to 1942, and the second, in which France allied with England, started over a decade later in 1839 and ended in 1860. Both wars ended with beneficial results for Britain and not for the Qing Dynasty of China, which after its first defeat not only had it to increased the treaty ports so Britain could trade and reside, but they had to cede Hong Kong to them as well; The outcomes of the second war weren't beneficial either: Chinese was forced to open more ports to British, to allow them to travel in their country, and legalize the opium trade, which started the wars in the first place.
Answer 2
Answer: Opium wars were wars between China and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland over the right to trade in China.

So, technically, the correct answer is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, but I guess, "England", which was part of is is also a good answer.

Explanation:

A laissez-faire government approach to the economy is based on the ideas of __________. A.
socialism
B.
communism
C.
traditionalism
D.
capitalism

Answers

A laissez-faire government approach to the economy is based on the ideas of D) capitalism. Laissez-faire or a hands off approach posits that an economy will function best without the interference of government or regulation. 

Correct answer:  D. capitalism

Further detail:

The terminology of "laissez-faire" has been used in economics since the 18th century Enlightenment era.  "Laissez-faire" is French for "let do."  You can think of it as letting the economy do its own thing, without governments trying to interfere with it or control it.  This was an idea promoted by the Physiocrats in 18th century France.  They called themselves "Physiocrats" (those who believed in "rule by nature") because they thought trade and commerce should be allowed to proceed naturally.

The Scottish philosopher Adam Smith picked up on this idea also and promoted a capitalist economy in opposition to what he called a "mercantilist" economy where governments gave monopolies to certain merchants and tried to control business affairs.
